lots of stress lately so I'll be short.
What does "A Tisket, A Tasket" mean? I know it's a nursery rhyme, but being no native speaker I can't make out any meaning in it, and in it's use as a reference/figure of speech (Merrian-Webster failed me on that one, not mentioning it at all). So does it have any meaning at all or is it just some non-sensical filling to support the rythm of the children song.

lol....it has no meaning, it is only used to fill up a nursery rhyme's verse and so the words rhyme together.
It is just non-sensical filling.
